Alpha Hunter

Chapter 54

Chapter 54 Reyna Cruz: “No! It’s just a simple meeting.” I let out an uncomfortable laugh, trying to ease up the air. It’s not that I was afraid of Hunter; I just didn’t feel like talking about my love life in front of him.. “A meeting? But mommy, you told me that you resigned from your job,” as Turner mentioned my job, the look on Hunter made it clear that he was not only shocked but disturbed as well “You resigned?” he steadily placed Turner on the couch and asked me. “Yeah! I’ve been thinking about spending time with Turner more. After his accident, I just feel very uneasy leaving him with anyone.” I don’t know why I said the wrong thing, but it just escaped my mouth. He tilted his head and then nodded, acknowledging my words and taking them in the wrong way. Not that I said anything in the right way either. “You keep playing; I will have a word with your mommy alone, okay?” Hunter told my son, making me frown. What did he want to speak about with me? He gestured at me to follow him and then led the way. I was a bit annoyed at how he thought I would go rushing after him with just a gesture of his finger, but what was more confusing was that I did just that. I ran after him in the garden and stopped when we were in the parking lot. This was where Turner couldn’t listen to us but also from where Hunter could keep an eye on him. “What do you want to talk about?” I asked, folding my arms over my chest and showing interest. “If you are resigning because of me, then don’t. I don’t want my son’s mother to sit alone in the house and go crazy with numerous thoughts occupying her head,” it didn’t even seem like he was attempting to infuriate me. He was straight up convinced he was saying the right things. “You and your your mate might be into all that. I don’t think too much” I scoffed. “That I know. You don’t like thinking–at all,” I didn’t get why he had turned even bitter, but the only guess I could make was ‘Samuel. Ever since he found out about us, he had lost his mind. Every word he spoke to me was filled with bitterness and hatred. “Well, I have resigned. And as for me staying all alone in the home, that’s also not true. I have

Polline and my son with me. So don’t worry about me so much,” I used a very annoying tone to give it back to him, but the way he smiled to himself filled my skin with goosebumps. There was something else on his mind, certainly, and now I was concerned about what it could. be. “I don’t think you are ready to hear what I am going to say to you, he fixed his posture and looked over my head, staring at the sky when preparing to speak, “your son is my son too. So why is it that he gets to live with you and not me?” With that one single question, he was able to bring my worst fears to life. I had a feeling it would come to the point when he” would raise that question of joint custody. And I was so not ready for it. “Because you live with a leech who was the reason my son got into an accident in the first place,” I lost it and raised my voice. Is that why he chose to take us afar away from Turner? He must have known that’s how I would react to his statement. “Hmm! Shout out all you want. But maybe you should also hold yourself accountable for not keeping an eye on a child. How did he leave the house without your knowledge? Was it that easy for him to fool you?” he seemed to have been in a very good mood, as if he was certain he would win the argument. “Hunter! I get it that you hate me, but I will not let you take my on away from me. He will not go there with her being around, I was fuming, breathing profusely too, and every time clenched my jaw, a smirk of comfort appeared on his lips. He was happy to see me suffer 1/2 ||| Chapter 54 705 “That’s not my problem. I will have to get them to mend their relationship eventually since Turner will be staying with me for four days a week and three days with you from now on,” he continued to make my heart skip a beat. I felt like I was being shoved in a dungeon and tortured until I lost my breath. The idea of him taking him from me for more days than 1 get to keep him was in itself a killer, and then on top of it, he was making sure I knew that my son would also be a part of a family

with him and Tara. “Haven’t you punished me enough already?” I muttered under my breath. It was getting hard for me to stop the formation. of tears in my eyes. After so long, one would think he would just be over it, but he was so full of hatred for me. “Huh! I didn’t do anything. I was a fool who let you walk away with my child. You didn’t only betray me and make me a laughing stock, but you robbed me of my son too, Reyna,” he hunched over and pointed his finger in my face, making me gulp and glare back at him. “And you are going to punish me by taking away my child and punting him in danger?” I yelled, watching my son raise his head from afar. That’s when both of us faked smiles and, after confirming we were doing fine, he lowered his head to solve the puzzle again. “You are accusing an alpha king of not being able to take care of his son. Do you know the council even suggested that I take full custody of Turner?” he was so calm today. He had surely come back with the best revenge after seeing me and his friend together. “How could they do this to me?” I whispered in a broken voice. “Just like how you did it to me. Not to mention, you were accused of cheating on your mate. The rules state clearly that you shouldn’t even be granted custody. The one who cheats loses the babies,” he shrugged, bombarding me with another terrifying piece of news, You are going to take him away from me?” I asked in a petrified tone. “I haven’t thought about it until now. The way you are against the idea of my son spending time with me, I am beginning to wonder if I should behave the same way and not let him stay with you at all,” his words and the petty little smirk made my heart sink in my chest. That’s when he added, “but I will not do that. At least not for now. The future will tell what I decide.” “How can someone be so vicious?” I kept staring at his face, wondering what happened to his kind heart. “The one who loves like crazy hates like crazy too,” he muttered, deepening the eye contact with me before looking away and clenching his jaw, “enjoy your date with him now.” I should have known he would do something if I upset him. But now I was deeply scared of losing my son. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
